I'm getting a totally black rendering using iray on an existing file that was created using mental ray. I've tried changing the exposure. Can I use iray with an existing file with arch and design mats?
View 2 RepliesI have a 580GTX and I think that's a pretty powerful card. With Quadcore 3.6ghz... And iray will never ever stop rendering when set to unlimited? I thought that eventually, somehow it should stop when it calculates everything possible? But there is no progress bar. Despite leaving even a simple scene running for hours upon hours it still has some fuzzy grainy specs in certain parts of image though.

It's quite baffling as to why, but even when i change back to my regular Driver Direct3D 9.0- ATI Radeon HD 4600 series it refuses to show rendered textures other than ones that are made in max 2012.
I've uploaded a picture to show what happened.
I am having problems using the Metallic paint when rendering with Iray in max 2013. The material always comes out as a glossy black whatever I do.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've started playing with iray just to see how things should actually look so that I can compare it with MR renderings. The main error here is the dark shadows... Why they're so dark? Also interesting how mr has completely washed out the soffit of the walkway and notice how iray brings out the metallic qualities in the copper fascia.
Photographic exposure's used with a daylight system and MR image uses default GI and Draft FG.
So I finally made my own alpha map to simple shapes look like strands of hair. Only problem is when I use Iray and I learn that it won't render the alpha and I'm left with a render of the original shapes. Is there anyway to work around this?
I want to keep Iray, I can't give up that rendering power.But on the other hand I want to use hair without having to use anything that will eat at my computer's performance (so no hair and fur modifier or anything particle system unless it can be utilized easier)
whenever i rotate my view like they do in the videos my activeshade window absolutley never updates...

All goes well for the first 2 hours or so and then the drivers crash with error code 4101 ( Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.) This then kills the render. ive tried updating my mobo bios asus p9x79 to latest verion from 2104 to 3305. this had no effect. im using a gtx 670 ftw 4gb with 3104.07 drivers and 80.04.4b.00.70 firmware is installed. 3ds max is updated to update 6 This is on a clean install of windows drivers and apps. this is killing me ive got stuff that needs to get done and i just cant do it at the moment.

I'm trying to find out if the new iray 2 Layered Material Model is in 3ds Max 2012 Service Pack 2..The Nvidia 2011 Siggraph demo has iray 2 supporting this material, for SSS and carpaint type shaders.
The 3ds Max Service Pack 2 has iray 2 but in the Release Notes for Service Pack 2 I can't see this new shader.Is this something that's in Max SP2 but not supported yet?
I have a NVidea Quadro FX 1800 card. The NVidea Control Panel information shows 64 CUDA cores(screen grab attached). Yet the iRay message window shows 0 CUDA cores (screen grab attached).
how I can get the iRay Renderer to use the CUDA cores on my machine?
Any good workaround for Visible to camera option not working with iray? I need to hide one object from my render but still keep its effect on lighting. Even only just making the object not visible in the alpha channel would be enough (if the workaround doesnt mean rendering the image 2 times).
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen iray rendering crashes, it briefly displays an error message, then goes to the Autodesk error report, closing down 3dsmax. The error message on my machine is displayed in red on grey for a fraction of a second, and appears to give information as to cause of crash, but is too quick to read. Any way to persuade it to stay on screen long enough to read?

I've noticed new issue with iRay: When glosiness of refractions is lower than 1 the SHADOW isn't correct - looks like casted by non-transparent object.
I'm sure it's not caused by "non shaped" light source, I've tried with daylight system and with Photometic shape-visible light.
I've attached ZIPped file to illustrate that problem, and a test renderings I've made.

Got my max design 2012 but have a problem with horizontal banding appearing on certain bits of the image. see attachement.
Rendered the image fine in IRAY on max 2011 but now I moved to 2012 the same file creates these wierd lines.
Takes too long to clone it in Pshop and the results are not great.
It isn't running out of memory on the card.

why i cannot change the color of the background when rendering? It is always black, and i cannot attached or make new material, if need to attach jpeg or new texture on my drawing, cannot create new material. what should i do? im currently using autocad for mac 2012.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just download a trail version of Adobe Photoshop CC and plainning to use Photoshop for all of my 3D works. My systems specs is AMD FX 6100 on the CPU side, NVida GeForce GTX 560 Ti, 8 gig of DDR3 1333 Mhz RAM and WD Black 1 TB and Window 8 64-bit.
when I use photoshop cc to render 3D text, I see that it use more of CPU power and the RAM don't even move.
i check these status using Logitech G510 gaming keyboard LED screen.
I understand 8 gig is more enough for gaming but for intensive task like 3D rendering, I heard that I need 12 gig or 16 gig. My motherboard support up to 32 gb but that will cuase more and thinking of upgrade to 16 gig of RAM. my motherboard only support 1333 mhz and I don't want to upgrade my motherboard.

When I extrude shapes in PSD thay always have a jagged and wavy surface, even after rendering???
I have Photoshop via Creative Clouds and it is great.Suddenly the 3d rendering looks different. Before it was some squeer boxes that appear on the screen and now they are dissapear and it is just one box with marching ants around it. How can I get it back?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I made a house, and imported it into 3ds max. None of the materials that I applied in auto cad architecture using images, did not appear in 3ds max. So I tried adding bitmaps in 3ds max. the Problem is, when I add a bitmap in 3ds max, the material appears in the view-port, but when I render the material texture wont show. Only a color comes.
For example, I applied a grass bitmap image. When I render, instead of the grass texture appearing, only the color green appears.
I've been using 3D Max for a few years,but I never came across this problem before. I start to render and first 50 frames works fine, but after 50 something frames my laptops is turned off with no message or error or anything.
My laptop is a Dell XPS 8GB RAM i7-3520 @ 2,9 Ghz, it's Intel HD 4000 2GB and I'm using 64 bit windows 7.
I really do not under stand why the particles do not render. you can easily see that they are in the model. I am showing 10% in the view and rendering 100% yet when I render I get none at all.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI found that with max design 2013 a typical architectural scene would render in about 20 minutes using daylight system and final gather on my computer whereas a similar kind of scene i create in ..2014 takes hours (the buckets are smaller for some reason by the way ). The computer manager where i work retained the settings i had in ..2013 when he installed ..2014 and i am wondering if that has something to do with it. If so is it possible to successfully reinstall without retaining settings.

I just started using this program only a few days ago, so what am i missing? is there something i need to do before i render the my whole bug with colors?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have 2 questions. I am working on a room and am rendering to texture. Once I have baked the textures and applied them to the objects, the objects turn gray. How do I view how the texture looks?
Also- if I grouped the walls for the 2 rooms, will that make it so I can render them to texture at one time? If I do a Select All there is no name under Objects to Bake in Render to Texture.
Can't find a way to stop 3D rendering in Photoshop CS6!
Only with force quit...
Using a 288MB quicktime file (1920x1080) shot with a Nikon D7000, all I did in PS was add two curves layers, one masked and the other not.
If I export (to the same file type) with "all frames" selected, the file balloons to 21GB and the rendering is lousy: jagged, as if most of the frames are dropped.
That doesn't happen, however, if I export a short range of frames (400 frames out of a total 2810). Rendering comes out fine and the file size seems to be comensurate with its portion of the original. When I try to export the whole video using the first and last frames of the video in the range dialogue, PS freezes up.
The original, unedited video, however, plays fine, it's just overexposed.
I'm running Win 7, 64bit, 16GB RAM, core i7 3.4GHz cpu, with an Nvidia GeForce GT 530.
When I render a 3D scene in Photoshop CS6, is the GPU of my system of any use? Whenever I render any 3D scene in PS, I have noticed that the GPU stays idle, it does nothing, everything seems to be done by the CPU. Is it supposed to be this way?
OpenGL _is_ correctly enabled in PS and I have just one video card in my system (GTX660 Ti 3GB).
by download I received CS6 (download version, not by disk).after installation I tryed in a photo to put an object into a spotlight.in the menu filter, rendering you can activate clouds etc, also lighteffects, but in my version the tab lighteffects is coloured in grey (not active)how can I get this thing started?
View 18 Replies View RelatedJust a quick question - what does Photoshop CS6 Extended use to render 3D objects? When I create very simple 3D text and render, it's taking about 2 hours or more. In the past (5 or so years ago) I did a lot of computer animation with Maya, Max etc. and with my less capable system back then, each frame rendered much quicker than it seems to with Photoshop. I understand that for animation I was only rendering 1920 x 1080 images rather than my current A4 300dpi ones, but should it really make that much difference? It seems to perform many many render passes before it's done. My graphics card is definitely the weakest part of my system...I built this computer not too long ago for use with CS3 and now it's all about graphics card performance...typical!
Here are my specs:
Windows 7 64 bit
Intel i5 2500k @ 3.3ghz
16gb DDR3 ram
Nvidia GT220 (512mb DDR3)
Would a 1gb DDR5 card speed up rendering that dramatically? I was always under the impression it was CPU that determined render speed?
I upgraded to Creative Suite 6 about 3 months ago and Photoshop has been freezing up when I am working. I can not figure out what action I do that provokes this. I either have to wait about 60 to 90 sec. before I can continue to work or I have to restart the program by using "force quit".
